Reward Offered for Fisherman Who
Shot His Wife and Son.
James M. Knapp, the old fisherman who
hot and Wounded his wife and son,
John, Friday evening, Is still at large and
tip to last night the police had been un
able to secure any trace of him beyond
the report Saturday that he had been In
Oarner township and later at Quick.- At !
that time he was supposed to be heading
for Mills county, where It was reported
he had a brother living, hut this has
since been dented by members of the
family.
Cards giving a description of Knapp have
been sent broadcast by the police de
partment. These cards announce the offer
of a reward of $25 for the old man's ar
rest. John Knapp, the son. was reported at
the hospital last night to be getting along
nicely and that the chances for his re
covery were favorable.
In connection with this case the police
authorities have determined that the ques
tion of tne liability of the county for the
remuneration of physicians called to at
tend such emergency cases shall be brought
to an Issue. When the police were unable
to reach Dr. Reller. the county physician.
City Physician Tinley1 attended John
Knapp and It was on Mayor Macrae's
order that he was removed two hours after
the shooting to the General hospital. The
supervisors have, heretofore refused to al
low the bills of physicians whose services
were requisitioned In such emergency cases
on the grounds that such attendance was
not authorized by them or the county
physician.
Chief of Police Richmond, In dlscusBlng
the matter yesterday, said that In future
In such cases he would call upon Judge
Scott of the superior court and secure an
order for the commitment of the patient
to the hoBpItal and on the court placing
its O. K. on the bill tho county board
would be called upon to pay It.
